The e-glass fibre epoxy composite is a nonconductive ceramic material hence it is difficult to machine by any well known non-conventional machining methods like electrical discharge machining, wire electrical discharge machining etc. This material can be machined with conventional machining but compromise with accuracy, surface texture even not possible to micro slicing etc. Keeping in view, a ...

Micro Electric Discharge Machining is a nontraditional machining process which can be used for drilling micro holes in high strength to weight ratio materials. This present research study deals with the single optimization of micro EDM process using Genetic Algorithm. Mathematical models using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) is used to correlate the response and the parameters. The desired r...

This paper develops a computational method for numerical control (NC) of traveling wire electric discharge machining (EDM) operation from geometric representation of a desired cut profile in terms of its contours. Normalized arc length parameterization of the contour curves is used to represent the cut profile and a subdivision algorithm is developed together with kinematic analysis to generate...

Electric Discharge Machining is a non-conventional machining process, used to machining difficult to machine materials. The major problem faced while doing EDM is high tool wear rate, end wear, corner wear , surface roughness and low material removal rate,. In this research work experimental investigations have been made to find the machining characteristics of high density ultra fine graphite ...

In electricfish ofthe mormyridfamily, an efference copy is present in the brain region that receives afferent input from ampullary electroreceptors. The efference copy is elicited by the motor command tofire the electric organ. Its effect is always opposite that of ampullary afferents responding to the electric organ discharge, and it changes to match variations in this afferent input. It proba...

A dual mechanical port machine (DMPM) is used as an electrically variable transmission (EVT) in hybrid electric vehicle (HEV). In the conventional HEV, this machine is replaced by a planetary gearbox and two electric machines and makes this structure simpler. This paper presents field oriented control (FOC) for DMPM. For HEV application, drive efficiency and wide operating speed range are impor...

High voltage transmission has been chosen in electric power system due to its capability to transfer a large amount of electric power. Several key equipments such as generator, transformer, GIS, cable and insulator play important role in determining the reliability of the power system. The high voltage equipments in general contain gas, liquid or solid insulation. Defects and a particular condi...
